"The cold grasp of corruption shackles the District of Columbia," David said. "The winter is over. Change is here. The sun shines on a new day, and the day is ours." He asked the crowd who would be voting in the 2018 midterms, and responded to their cheers, "If you listen real close, you can hear the people in power shaking. They've gotten used to being protective of their positions, choosing the safety of inaction. Inaction is no longer safe. And to that we say, 'No more!'"

"We are going to make this the voting issue," David continued. "We're going to take this to every election, to every state and every city. We're going to make sure the best people get in our elections to run, not as politicians, but as Americans. Because this," David said, pointing at the U.S. Capitol behind him, "this is not cutting it. When people try to suppress your vote, and there are people who stand against you because you're too young, we say, 'No more!'"

"No more!" was a rallying cry throughout David's speech, as he had the audience shout it with him in response to politicians without public stances on gun control and those who send thoughts and prayers. David directly addressed politicians with NRA ties, advising them: "I say get your resumés ready."

"Today is the beginning of spring, and tomorrow is the beginning of democracy," David continued. "Now is the time to come together, not as Democrats, not as Republicans, but as Americans. Americans of the same flesh and blood that care about one thing, and one thing only, and that's the future of this country and the children that are going to lead it."

"Now, they will try to separate us in demographics, they will try to separate us by religion, race, congressional district, and class," he warned the crowd. "They will fail. We will come together. We will get rid of these public servants that only serve the gun lobby. And we will save lives. You are those heroes."

David closed his speech issuing a rallying cry to drive people to the polls in 2018: "This is the start of the spring and the blossoming of our democracy, so let's take this to our local legislators and let's take this to midterm elections because without the persistent heat, without the persistence of voters and Americans everywhere getting out to elections, democracy will not flourish, but it can and it will."

"To those politicians who say change will not come, I say we will not stop until every man, every woman, every child, and every American can live without fear of gun violence," David said as he ended his speech. "To that I say, 'No more!'"
